“Tu Primera Vivienda” Program
Bringing stability to more Bolivian families during times of crisis.
The “Tu Primera Vivienda” Program was launched during the pandemic in response to the urgent need for many Bolivian families to access their own safe and secure home. Building on the success of the Ventilla program, we set out to replicate these results to reach more households struggling due to the health and economic crisis.
This project focuses on providing affordable and accessible housing solutions for families who otherwise wouldn’t have the opportunity to acquire their first home. The pandemic exposed the deep inequalities in housing access, and this program emerged as an effective response to mitigate that impact.
Throughout its implementation, we’ve seen how the coordinated efforts of various institutions and communities have provided many families with a real opportunity to improve their quality of life. By building safe and suitable homes, the program promotes not only stability but also personal growth and the development of stronger, more resilient communities.
The program continues to expand, with the goal of transforming the lives of many more families in Bolivia, helping them build a future with greater security and well-being.

How are The houses?
Our houses made of brick, with cement plaster, corrugated roofs, kitchens with tiles, glass windows and metal doors, drastically changed the lives of Mizque families who lived in huts made of adobe bricks, without windows or doors with thatched roofs

Bye Bye Chagas Program
From adobe to brick: A life-changing shift for the community.
In the impoverished communities of Mizque, Cochabamba, life was a daily struggle against poverty, filth, and disease. The fragile homes made of adobe, stone, and sticks were the only shelter for many families, where straw roofs barely protected them from wind and rain.
